25 Insanely Hot Female Athletes You Should Be Following on Instagram

First came Facebook, which allowed us to tell everyone we know what we’re thinking. After that came Twitter, which allowed us to do pretty much the exact same thing, only in fewer words. Then, finally, came Instagram, which just got rid of words altogether and focused on only thing anybody really cared about anyway: pictures.

Today there are over 150 million people on Instagram. Most of them are regular people posting square pictures of coffee foam, sepia-tinted dogs, and over-saturated sunsets. However, some of them are ridiculously good-looking female athletes posting pictures of themselves being athletic and/or ridiculously good-looking. And today we’re going to take a little tour of that demographic.

Not an Instagram user? That’s okay. You can still look at the list.

That being said, by the time you’re done looking you probably will be an Instagram user. I mean, you see that picture up there, right?

Not only is Lindsey Vonn gorgeous, but her Instagram feed is pleasantly devoid of photos that will remind you she is dating Tiger Woods. Of course, there are a couple of Tiger pics here and there, but it’s most just her working out.

The best thing about Stephanie Rice’s Instagram account? She doesn’t just post hot photos of herself. (You remember this one, right?) She also posts photos of other women she thinks are hot…which is very considerate.

Gracie Gold’s Twitter feed is terrible. It’s pretty much run by her sponsors. However, her Instagram feed is another story. If you want to get a sense of what it’s like to be a gorgeous 18-year-old figurer, take a look.

Sloane Stephens probably isn’t going to take over for Serena Williams as the torch-bearer of American women’s tennis the way people predicted—in part because she’s probably not as good as Serena, and in part because Serena doesn’t look like she’s quitting any time soon. That being said, she is ranked 12th in the world…and she’s gorgeous.

There’s a reason Paula Creamer is the most popular woman on the LPGA Tour, and it’s not just because she’s both hot and good. People also just love her personality, and that definitely shines through in her Instagram feed.

5. Michelle Jenneke

You probably knew U.S. soccer player Sydney Leroux was hot. But did you know she was this hot?

Of course, at this point some of you might be wondering whether we’ll see Sydney’s bff Alex Morgan on this list, and the answer is no. While Alex is extremely attractive, she hardly ever posts on her Instagram account, so there’s really no point following here.

Last and the furthest thing possible from least, we have Paraguayan Olympic javelin thrower Leryn Franco. We alerted you to the awesomeness of her Instagram feed just last week, which is how the idea for this list came about. If anyone can convince you to sign up for Instagram, it’s her.
